Rose & Thorn

Chapter 8. Veracity

Elizabeth's POV

"Congratulations I'm so happy he asked you out" I clapped my hand looking at my adorable friend blushing,

"Well technically I asked him out he said yes" she replied still blushing,

"Same what matters is that finally your love carriage is moving" a little slowly but yes moving,

"Yeah but its all your magic if you wouldn't have send me there that night I don't think so this would've happened" she holds my hands "Thank You, you're a true friend"

Smiling I squeezed her warm gloved hands "This is what friends are for" she hugs me,

"Alright now let's get ready for work" saying she goes in to locker room.

I feel so happy for them, a week ago She told me about their kiss that Jeremy didn't even mention, at first I couldn't believe it but then after seeing Jeremy avoiding eyes with Dylan I had to, from that day they've been in an awkward kinda meets,

I'll catch them looking at each other then pretending like they weren't, but today finally Dylan proposed a date and my robot friend said yes.

I just wish happiness for them.

I start working again serving drinks to a group of friends, now I can make most of the drinks, I'm faster than before as well, I'm happy to work efficiently.

I'm really enjoying my new life, few months back I never thought that I'll ever be able to get out of the clutches of that monster, I never thought that I'd be working, will ever become independent but here I'm now,

Sometimes I feel that what I did that night was not wrong maybe it was necessary, everything has its reason, and maybe it was God that created that night to free me from my old life.

"Working good girl" I shook my head over Dylan's praise,

"Thank You my wonderful teacher taught me this" I replied making her smile,

"Yeah we better be our best today" saying she starts setting up the glasses,

"Why today? Anything special?"

"Don't you know everyone's talking about it" cons of being an introvert it is "Mr. Thorn is coming today?"

Who is he on the first place? before I could say it my face says it all,

"Really don't you know him" yes I don't "He's one of the richest men in world, he comes here whenever he's in town, he's a friend to boss, trust me when you'll see him you'll be flat"

Explains why he's important "I don't think I'm really not into men twice my age"

"He's not old, he's among the most handsome and eligible bachelors" she knows a great deal about him "Whenever he visits our club all the girls go crazy to have his attention but he never even glances at them, he's just too rude"

"Money and power is a bad combination can make you many bad things" and he's all of it I guess,

"Exactly I heard that once he killed a man in club over a small thing that's why we always make sure not to trouble when he's around" she says giving a girl drink,

Murder, blood I don't wanna talk about it "Leave him, I'm sure in any point of time when he'll feel like to write about his life he'll call you to write it" I joke,

She snorts "I'll gladly write it" I smile at wink.

It was busy today we all are working like machines, it seems strange that how scared the boys are because of his arrival and how excited the girls are,
